Vincennes University Installation

This week marked a 30 hour trip to Vincennes where I started the installation of the exhibition The Object Transformed. Never did I realize that the wunderkammer would have staying power. This is its fifth exhibition!

This was the first chance for me to see the mammoth paper bags together (not rolled up in a box). I'm really thankful they can be viewed as a grid. Thanks to Morgan Ford Willingham for the opportunity to show my work in this gallery! More photographs will follow next month when I return for the closing reception.

About Me

I am fascinated by Conceptual Art, photography and its relationship to sculpture and installation, artist’s books, appropriation, the Earthworks movement, and the narrative as found in constructed imagery. Found photographs, maps, 16th century cabinets of curiosity in the form of the wunderkammer, fake desserts, swimming pools, worn and dilapidated objects, obsessive behavior in collecting, repetition, and storytelling are all important influences. Recently, my interests have expanded to include clandestine activities through artist correspondence, interventions, and guerilla art projects. I am also a photographer of objects - the object transformed into a self-portrait, a representation of place, a distant memory, or a symbol of fixation.
